Rather than add to the code to detect if the path is valid, add to 
the service  script a presetup command that does 
'mkdir -p /var/lib/bmcweb/' to create the directory.   Ideally this 
would be written to have the path in a meson variable that is built
into a configuration .h file and into the service file using variable
substition to make sure the path in the code is the same as the 
directory in the service file.
